The Suspend power policy causes virtual machines to be suspended when a user logs out, but not when a user disconnects. You can also configure machines in a dedicated pool to be suspended when a user disconnects from a desktop without logging off. Using Suspend when users disconnect helps to conserve resources.
To enable suspend on disconnect for dedicated machines, you must set an attribute in Horizon Directory.
